"Old man, you insisted on taking advantage of this small advantage. Now, the thirty yuan is gone.”
"Thirty yuan. How long do I have to scrimp and save to save it?”
"You're already so old, but you're still so useless. You earn so little, but it's not enough to spend. I take care of the family every day.”
In Third Uncle's house, as soon as Li Chengye left, Third Aunt could not help but cry.
As she cried, she scolded Third Uncle.
With the loss of 30 yuan, Third Aunt felt that she would not be able to sleep well for a few years.
Yan Bugui also hung his head down, feeling depressed. That thirty yuan was like a piece of meat on his body.
It would be a miracle if he was in a good mood.
However, the old woman kept cursing beside him, making Yan Bugui even more annoyed.
Especially now that it was late at night, Third Aunt's scolding was getting louder and louder.
No matter what, Yan Bugui was still a teacher and usually cared about his face.
If Third Aunt continued to scold him, the entire courtyard would probably know about it. He would lose face.
"Old woman, stop talking. Do you think I'm willing to lose this money to Li Chengye?”
"Who knew that it was really Li Chengye who came up with that thing? With his brain, I wouldn't have thought that he could come up with something like Fast Heat.”
Yan Bugui couldn't help but say, hoping that Third Aunt would stop scolding him.
"Didn't expect it? That's because you're stupid. Didn't Li Chengye do it?”
"Why don't you think about it? If Li Chengye wasn't confident, he wouldn't have dared to make this bet with you.”
"Now, you've given so much money to others for nothing. When can you save up 30 yuan?”
Hearing Yan Bugui's excuses, Third Aunt became even angrier. Not only did she scold him even more, but she also jumped up and pinched Yan Bugui.
"What are you saying? I didn't see you objecting a few days ago. Didn't you think that you were picking up money for nothing?”
"Silly Zhu, Liu Haizhong, they both bet more than me.”
"You're so amazing and have such foresight. Back then, when you stopped me, didn't you also look like you were picking up money for free?”
Yan Bugui couldn't take it anymore and started scolding Third Aunt.
"Damned Li Chengye, how dare you trick me like this. I won't let you off.”
"30 yuan. I'll make you cough it up with interest sooner or later.”
"Didn't you want to go on a blind date? I'll definitely ruin it for you.”
Yan Bugui was furious. He hated Li Chengye to the core.
After all, to Yan Bugui, you could call him poor, scheming, and stingy, but he could tolerate it.
However, he could not tolerate anyone who cheated him of his money.
To Yan Bugui, money was more important than his life.
"These beasts, when they are taking advantage of others, they run very fast. When they are about to bleed, they are unwilling to give up.”
Hearing the noise coming from the room behind him, Li Chengye smiled coldly without any sympathy.
As long as these beasts were given a chance, they would pounce on them and bite them without mercy.
He sympathized with them. They deserved it.
"I wonder what excuse Liu Haizhong will find to deny it?”
Li Chengye slowly walked over to Liu Haizhong's room. He was sure that Liu Haizhong wouldn't be willing to steal the money obediently.
After all, Liu Haizhong owed him a whole hundred yuan. Anyone would feel the pinch.
It was not easy to make Liu Haizhong pay obediently.
However, Li Chengye was not worried. Qin Huairu and Yan Bugui were not easy to deal with. In the end, they would still obediently fork out the money.
No matter how many tricks Liu Haizhong had, as long as Li Chengye insisted on asking for money, he didn't believe that Liu Haizhong could do anything.
"Second Uncle?"
She walked a few steps to Liu Haizhong's house and knocked twice.
The door creaked open, and a figure with bangs appeared at the door.
"Yo, Little Li, you're still up so late.”
Liu Haizhong greeted Li Chengye enthusiastically as if he was happy to see him.
Liu Haizhong's actions confused Li Chengye.
What was this old man doing?
Didn't he know that he was here for money?
"Yes, it's still early. Didn't you just come back from dinner?”
One should not hit a smiling face. Since Liu Haizhong was acting like this, Li Chengye could not help but be aggressive.
Therefore, Li Chengye smiled and nodded as he spoke to Liu Haizhong.
"Second Uncle, you saw the news in the factory today, right?”
No matter what Liu Haizhong's attitude was, Li Chengye still wanted money.
Li Chengye asked Liu Haizhong if he had read the newspaper in the factory today.
With Liu Haizhong's personality, he was more concerned about the big and small matters of the factory than the leaders of the factory.
He did not believe that Liu Haizhong had not noticed the news in the factory today.
Li Chengye went straight to the point. Liu Haizhong must have understood that Li Chengye was here for money.
"I did. It's really amazing. I really didn't expect that you invented the fast heat.”
"There's a talent in our courtyard. Maybe we old fellows will benefit from it.”
Liu Haizhong grabbed Li Chengye's hand and said excitedly.
Looking at his happy expression, it was as if the person who was praised was not Li Chengye, but Liu Haizhong.
"It's really an honor. The factory manager, the deputy factory manager, and everyone else took photos with you. I've thought about it my entire life, but I've never encountered such a thing.”
Liu Haizhong was envious from the bottom of his heart. The things that Li Chengye had encountered were exactly what he had been searching for.
Countless nights, when Liu Haizhong dreamed, he dreamed that he was commended by the entire factory, and the factory manager and deputy factory manager warmly received him.
He was promoted to a leadership position, first as the production team leader, then as the workshop director, and then to manage a certain department of the rolling mill.
Liu Haizhong woke up laughing when he encountered such a thing in his dreams.
When he woke up and realized that it was just a dream, he was extremely disappointed.
Seeing Li Chengye achieve the goal he had been pursuing for decades at such a young age, Liu Haizhong was deeply envious and jealous.
"No, no. It's just luck that occasionally comes up with such things.”
Li Chengye said modestly, but he was getting more and more confused.
What was Liu Haizhong up to? Li Chengye couldn't figure it out. He didn't want to think about it anymore and asked directly.
"Second Uncle, I'm here today for the bet we made two days ago.”
"Oh, I understand. It's the hundred yuan I lost, right?”
"I've already prepared it for you."
Liu Haizhong looked as if he had just remembered something. He walked in, lifted the pillow, picked up an envelope, and walked over.
"Xiao Li, I just took it out this afternoon. It's a whole hundred yuan. Count it!”
A brand new envelope was handed over by Liu Haizhong.
"Alright!"
Li Chengye did not stand on ceremony. After opening the envelope, he saw that there were indeed some brand new big unity letters inside.
He counted them carefully. Ten, no more, no less. It was exactly 100 yuan.
It was the amount that Liu Haizhong had lost to him.
He checked the amount and found that it matched. Li Chengye put the money away.
There were no counterfeit banknotes in this era. Even if there were, with Liu Haizhong's methods, it was impossible for him to obtain them.
Moreover, if they really did counterfeit money, they would be enemies and might lose their heads.
For a hundred yuan, which was less than two months 'salary, Liu Haizhong would be crazy to say that.
Seeing Li Chengye put the envelope in his pocket, Liu Haizhong still had a simple and kind smile on his face.
However, a deep pain flashed across his eyes. It was obvious that he was not as free and easy as he appeared.
After all, 100 yuan was not a small amount.
"Second Uncle, you're the most straightforward person in our courtyard!”
After Li Chengye received the money, he gave Liu Haizhong a thumbs up and praised him.
Anyway, no matter why Liu Haizhong would do such a strange thing, the money was already in his hands.
Li Chengye was very happy. He had thought that he would have to go through a lot of trouble again.
Since this second uncle was so straightforward, Li Chengye naturally wouldn't be stingy with his words of praise.
"I've always said that in our courtyard, Second Master has the best character and the highest prestige. He's much higher than Yi Zhonghai.”
